What is managed cybersecurity-as-a-service?

Managed cybersecurity-as-a-service (CSaaS) is a subscription-based model where a provider continuously manages an organization's entire security program — from vulnerability scanning and patching to endpoint protection and compliance reporting. Unlike traditional MSSPs that only detect and alert, CSaaS providers like Cyvatar actively execute remediation, applying patches, hardening configurations, and deploying protections across your environment.

What is an Agentic vCISO?

An Agentic vCISO is Cyvatar's AI-assisted, human-directed virtual Chief Information Security Officer. It continuously assesses your security posture across 21 categories, prioritizes risks using AI analysis aligned with NIST CSF 2.0, executes remediation directly, and proves compliance across 24 frameworks — all without requiring a full-time CISO or internal SOC.

How much does managed cybersecurity cost?

Cyvatar uses a phased engagement model instead of monolithic packages. Every new customer starts with the free Agentic vCISO Assessment — a 5-minute, 21-question evaluation that identifies their #1 most critical cybersecurity gap. That gap becomes the first phase of their engagement: Shield (endpoint management), Shield+ (threat and vulnerability management), Protect (human risk), Complete (compliance and governance), or Assure (incident response coordination). Customers expand into additional phases as they mature. No prices are quoted on the first call — the first call is focused on identify

What are Cyvatar's phased cybersecurity engagements?

Cyvatar organizes its managed cybersecurity services into five phases. Phase 1 — Shield ('Get Out of the Red Zone') is Secure Endpoint Management: SentinelOne endpoint protection plus Red Canary 24/7 monitoring, bundled. Phase 1.5 — Shield+ ('Stay Out of the Red Zone') is Threat and Vulnerability Management: all four scan types (internal, external, web application, host), patching cadence, and non-patch remediation. Phase 2 — Protect ('Reduce Your Most Likely Breach Path') is Human Risk Protection: security awareness training, phishing simulations, and User Account Monitoring when MFA is missi

Does Cyvatar do vulnerability remediation, not just patching?

Yes. Cyvatar's Threat and Vulnerability Management (Shield+, Phase 1.5) includes three distinct components: (1) continuous scanning across all four scan types — internal network, external/perimeter, web application (OWASP Top 10), and host-based; (2) patching cadence aligned to today's threat landscape — 132 new CVEs are published every day, so monthly patching leaves organizations exposed; and (3) non-patch remediation of configurations, registry hardening, exposed services, and insecure defaults. Not every vulnerability has a patch — Cyvatar closes the remediation loop that most security pro

What compliance frameworks does Cyvatar cover?

Cyvatar maps security controls to 24 compliance frameworks in real time, including NIST CSF 2.0 (98 of 102 controls), ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, CMMC (Levels 1-3), GDPR, CCPA, FTC Safeguards Rule, GLBA, NYDFS, SEC Cybersecurity Rules, DORA, NIS2, CIS Controls v8, and more.

How is Cyvatar different from a traditional MSSP?

Traditional MSSPs detect threats and send alerts, leaving your team to figure out remediation. Cyvatar executes fixes directly — patching vulnerabilities, hardening endpoints, deploying protections, configuring security tools, and managing compliance. The result: 0 successful ransomware attacks across all clients in 7 years, 1.1 million patches applied, and 274,000+ vulnerabilities remediated.

What industries does Cyvatar serve?

Cyvatar serves organizations across regulated and high-risk industries including fintech, banking, healthcare, SaaS, private equity portfolio companies, government contractors, e-commerce, insurance, AI companies, tax and CPA firms, and legal firms.
